actually does make landfall. and there'll be wins in georgia of 70 miles per hour, bringing down trees, bringing down power lines, and significant damage going on there, also with very heavy rainfall surge could be 15 feet a lot of homes aren't built that high and then storm surge still will push that water on up toward apalachicola. it's kinda like a catcher's mitt. i was right there. you are on your way over to pensacola? i was in st. mark's for hurricane ivan. ivan, the water came up 15 feet and then we talking about this, how much rainfall could come down? ten inches everywhere. that's purple. anderson, this could be a flood maker, a saltwater flood maker, and obviously wind damage maker as well. >> chad myers. thank you. will continue to follow the news continues. the source with kaitlan collins starts now see tomorrow tonight, trump and harris couldn't be closer and brand new cnn polling, but not only number one issue that matters to voters also, there's new

reaction tonight after trump told women, quote, i am your protector while a republican candidate for senate asked why women over 50 even care about abortion? >> the latest tonight on the news, sexual assault claims against sean diddy combs is latest accuser and tearful press conference today says that she was drugged right and filmed i'm kaitlan collins, and this is the source now officially six weeks away from election day and you know, you're getting close when you hear this sound adds the excitement and also the very real anxiety out there among some as the latest numbers tonight are confirming that this race is a true cliffhanger. brand new cnn reporting tonight shows a virtual tie between vice president harris and former president donald trump. there's no clear leader in

this race and the results of this nationwide survey of likely voters is well within the margin of error. look at these numbers harris 48 trump, 47. voters are telling us that far and away the most important issue to them is the economy. 41% say that, say that is their number one issue, while 21% believe it's protecting democracy. and then immigration and reproductive rights as for who voters trust more to handle their biggest concern right now, trump is leading harris by 11 points. it 50 to 39%. trump contrasted his economic plans with his opponents out on the campaign trail today if kamala harris gets four more years, she will d industrialized the united states and destroy our country under kamala harris, we lost 24,000 manufacturing jobs last month, 24,000 we're going to turn that around so fast. >> this horrific nightmare for american workers and the day i

take the oath of office i should note trump's own record on manufacturing from when he was in office is quite mixed. we're going to look at that tonight, but this is all coming as the vice president is set to outline more of her economic vision when she's in pennsylvania tomorrow and joining me now is kentucky's democratic governor andy beshear, who is a surrogate for the herat erez campaign. it's great to have you here. governor, we heard from donald trump today talking about his economic policies that he would implement if he wins a second term. vice president harris is set to lay out her agenda tomorrow, and this comes as eu but the suit new cnn numbers that are out today show likely voters trust him more than they do her on the economy, 50% to 39%. why do you think that is? >> well people don't always remember the recent past. donald trump left the american economy in shambles yes it was during a pandemic, but it grew

very, very difficult, especially near the end. his economic policy, which includes tariffs he started to implement. and what we saw were other countries putting their own tariffs on products, including kentucky bourbon the policies of donald trump in the economy certainly hurt my state and would hurt them again if implemented again. but i think you see his policy being all about how he feels on a certain day and what country is going to put a tariff on her policies are about us there are about a middle-class tax cut, there, about affordable housing. there, about the families in kentucky and across the united states of america. >> yeah. but and she's called trump's tariffs a trump sales tax, trying to tax, try to get him that way, something that you know, your own home state senator mitch mcconnell criticized today. >> but but on her we've seen voters want to know about more about her. so what does she need to say specifically in pennsylvania tomorrow to change that number well, first of all,

it's going to be a close race regardless, and we knew that, but she is generating the type of energy where i believe that she is going to win. >> i think she just needs to keep talking about how she cared there's about the american people, and how she's going to move us forward. now, donald trump will talk for an hour and a half or, or an hour, and we'll talk mainly about his grievances. she's out there talking about not just not going back, but how we move forward. and sometimes it takes awhile of telling your plan over and over of middle-class tax cuts that's of affordable housing. she is the first presidential candidate that i can remember in my lifetime to address affordable housing. and it's something that my state in every state is dealing with right now. i think that's something that people are going to hear and respond to. >> i mean, she's got six weeks from today. do you think she can do that? >> absolutely. >> i want you to listen to part of what trump said recently where he was is asked for specifics for his plan and we have not gotten details really from either of them too detailed on what their plans are economically, even though that's the number one concern

for voters, listen to what trump had to say recently about this what are the specific mechanics of how prices come down? the steps that would be taken in a second term for you. >> show, first of all, she can't do an interview. they're going to destroy lives they're going to destroy what they have done to this country. and especially in the sense of allowing millions and millions of people come in because that's something we can fix the gasoline relation and we can fix the anything prices come down magically because it's not them who come down with energy and they come down with interest rates, were going to get, as i told you, we're going to get energy down by 50% and 12 months i have it. it's going to be a major smash on energy i mean that was a word salad from him, but voters trust that guy more than they do. >> your candidate right now. >> well, more voters need to see that because the question were, how are you going to

bring prices down if the answer is because she's bad, any interviews i i've heard some of the criticism of the vice president but when those questions are asked, she at least outlines abroad plan. i get that there are more questions about specifics, but it's a real answer that has real policies that she can pursue go into the specifics. well, donald trump's answered everything is just elect me and i it'll work out there is no comparison between the two of them about who's putting out real ideas and who is simply running to address grievances from years ago, you mentioned how close this race is. i mean, the numbers out today from cnn national poll among likely voters first 48%, harris, 47% trump. if those numbers are accurate and this race was held tomorrow. do you think trump would win? >> i don't i believe that which ever side has the energy especially near the end, is the one that ends up winning.

>> it's the turnout that you see on the ground. and while donald, trump's energy is flat. there is so much momentum behind the vice president. you see that in terms of volunteers, you see that in terms of fundraising, you see that in terms of how people are excited at the events that she is at an excited to support her energy is so critical especially william, the last six weeks of an election. >> and obviously abortion is something else that your party is counting on. you ran on abortion as an issue, not something we would typically see a democrat do in a red state like kentucky, but it was something that you made a priority of yours and donald trump has been talking about this issue, are out on the campaign trail. listen to what he had to say two women last night because i am your protector. >> i want to be your protectors president. i have to be your protector. i hope you don't make too much of it. i hope the fake news as ago, he wants to be there protecting well, i am as president, i have to be your

protector. you will no longer be thinking about abortion is that what you think women, how women will feel after the election that they won't be thinking about abortion anymore if he went middle. >> of course, there'll be thinking about it. donald trump's handpick supreme court took a constitutional right away from my mom. my wife, my daughter, and half this country that it's left in states like mine with the most draconian laws on the books ten, 12-year-old girls impregnated through rape with no options. he keeps saying it's a beautiful thing to leave this to the states, not in my state. what it's done it is couples that have wanted to have kids so badly, but have a non-viable pregnancy if it's not going to ultimately kill the woman she's got to carry it to term just to listen to her child die at 85% of kentuckian's disagree with that it's far too extreme you talk about extreme and we hear how your party talks about

what would happen if trump is re-elected. but you have a lot of people in your state who are trump supporters. i mean, you know, these, these voters very well just as well as you know, your own voter, some of them may be trump bashir voters. when you look at numbers that say 47% of registered voters would feel afraid if trump won 45% would feel afraid if she won what does that say to you about how they view her wide? why do you think they're afraid 45% of registered voters are worried about a harris win. >> well, because donald trump and his campaign uses fear. that's the number one thing they push. fear and also trying to appeal to anger discontent to turn one neighbor against another. my faith tells me you were supposed to love our neighbor, as ourselves and that parable of the good samaritan says everyone is your neighbor. and so i think what we've got to after this election is turned down, the temperature we might not always agree with our neighbors, but we want them to do well and we really want their kids to have more opportunity. now, everything

doesn't have to be a partisan clash. we shouldn't have to pick sides and everything from the car we drive to the beer we drink, yes, beer became political somehow over the last couple of years. i believe the vice president can get us there i believe that looking forward means we can leave the device of politics of the past behind us. and i hope for that because i'm, i'm raising 15 and a 14-year-old, i want them to grow up in a world and vote in a world where politics isn't as divided and nasty as we see it right now, do you think karen it's needs a second debate i believe that the vice president won that debate going away. >> i don't think there's any way after she won by that much that the former president is can agree to another one. >> so you think there won't be another? debate among the presidential candidates? >> well, unless donald trump overrules his people, which have to be telling him there's no way you should go in again because i mean, just the not

only her performance but his taking the bait getting into grievances, not talking about things like policy, but instead about crowd size. and it was a really bad debate for him and again, there were some questions that it didn't appear that he even could answer. >> well, and obviously it could be quite helpful for her. i would imagine two weeks out for the election given voters want to know more about her, the vice presidential debate we'll be a week from today. it's going to be governor tim walz against senator j.d. vance what do you what would you do if you were debating j.d vance one week from today? >> well, tim walz is a great friend, a great governor, and he's going to be an amazing vice president of the united states. tim walz is such a good person and putting him next to j.d. vance on stage she's he's already going to start ahead. j.d. vance insults everyone. he insults adults without children. he is so insults

people with cats. he just it's like always there's this air of superiority and the american people don't like that. tim walz is the now tim walz was a lunch room monitor that, you know, was the assistant football coach that's out there. and as my friend, i can tell you, he is as genuine as anybody in politics. tmz just got to be himself and let j.d vance be himself kevin and bashir. >> thank you for being yourself and for joining us. >> thank you very much. have the on set? >> up next a republican who is running for senate in ohio says he was just joking for comments that he made about abortion and how women over 50 feel about the matter. also tonight, a closer look at donald trump's recent mcdonald's fixed haitian is now joking about working there as he accuses vice president harris of lying about doing so i'm going to work the french fry job for about a half half an hour wondering how

smartest southern is ever done this for a living? james was famous for winning races, teams believes that change width it's the economy stupid all right. apologizing to know what that man is it to fisted catcher, i am saying publicly what people say and turns out i have enough money back just shut up. >> winning is every things stupid. saturday, october 5th on cnn these men knows means were there silver spoons what would become of them when it is cut a robinhood gold allows others to earn their very liberal like it's on idle cash that he would descend into chaos at bids to credit. >> we know you need to fund your business on time. when businesses good, it could be time to expand time forbids to credit when bills are piling up, you might need extra cash to get ahead. >> time for vista credit, our fast and convenient online

process makes it easy to get the funding you need when it's time to take your business to new heights, bids to credit makes it possible go to bids to credit.com slash time or call 800, 200 to 891 biz to credit funding. >> what's next? >> when it comes to amgen life changing medical breakthroughs. every second counts. but without investment those breakthroughs, are often past cities seamlessly connected banking markets and services businesses deliver global financial solutions. so our client can keep investing in innovations for patients around the world without pause for the love of moving our clients forward, for the love of progress he told us who he was should abortion be punished. >> there has to be some form of punishment. >> then he showed us for 54 years, they were trying to get roe v wade terminated and i did it. and i'm proud to have done it now, donald trump wants to go further with plans to

restrict birth control, ban abortion nationwide, even monitor women's pregnancies we know who donald trump is. >> he'll take control wheel pay the price. >> i'm kamala harris and i approve this message thursday night football on prime it's take on the new york giants. thursday night football dark, prescott bracing an old this anywhere street. >> thursday night football 00 she

ee special event, the place presidential debate. >> next tuesday at nine some breaking news for you tonight as the trump campaign just now says that he was briefed today by us intelligence officials on threats from iran to assassinate he'd have a troll campaign said, in a quote, real and specific threats from iran to assassinate him and describe this as an effort to destabilized and sow chaos in the united states. >> now i should note some important context here, because this comes after i recently reported that intelligence officials had briefed the trump campaign's senior officials whether the trump campaign just about two weeks ago on iran's efforts to escalate attacks on him and those around him. i do want to be clear tonight that right now there is no evidence that either of the attempts on

his life, the one in butler, pennsylvania or in palm beach, florida had to do with iran it's an important story we will keep you updated on that also on the political front tonight, there's a republican candidate for national office who is now facing scrutiny over comments that he made about women. we've heard a lot of what senator j.d. vance calls childless cat ladies. and now tonight there is ohio senate candidate bernie moreno talking about women the over 50 during a recent town hall. now in the tape, i'm about to show you morenos democratic opponent that's senator sherrod brown. he is seizing on these comments on this clip, putting out a video of his own that shows a woman reacting to what moreno said abortion abortions i will vote for anybody else okay. >> a little crazy by the way it's especially for women, they're like past 50, think it

was on as you view i'll even know what to say, like honestly and i am a mother, a daughter, sisters i have a granddaughter of course it matters to me now spokesman for moreno is responding and saying the comment that you heard him make, there was a quote, tongue and cheek joke about how democrats treat women voters. but this is all coming as democrats and vice president kamala harris are campaigning heavily on abortion and rights nationwide right? >> thank we should eliminate the filibuster for roe. >> 51 votes would be what we need to actually put back in along the protections for reproductive freedom perspective now from my panel of political experts and i, i just first, what's your response to what the moreno campaign is saying essentially

that everyone's taking that too seriously and it's just a joke. well, look, this is what always happens, is that republicans flub people, find out about it. it goes viral. they look ridiculous and then they say, oh, it was the democrats fault. i was just saying it was the democrats. i mean, no one's buying that anymore. here's what we saw on display is that for whatever reason they think that it's a winning strategy to insult and disrespect more than half of the population, no matter what age she might be. and i just don't understand why strategically that feels like the right thing to do no matter what you believe, to just insult women. and the fact that they have mothers and sisters and daughters, right and still have such a deal? this regard for women is just mind-boggling to me. i don't know how they think they're going to win that way and let's all be reminded that 57% of women rejected donald trump, which is why lost. >> well, and it's interesting because it's not just democrats like sherrod brown, obviously he wants to take

advantage of this because it's six weeks out from the election and they believe it that's an issue that works from them. nikki haley, tw, is also responding to this tonight. she posted an asked if moreno is quote, trying to lose the election, and she called his comments tone deaf, which i think matters in the context of for a long time, she's been saying her her party has a problem your party with attracting women suburban women voters in no absolutely. >> and i think this is a great example of a politician tried to do way too much i think you hit the nail on the head. women over 50 are still mothers, daughters friends, sisters. these issues matter, but i think the issue he was trying to go two is and i know many women like this who are one issue voters, who are fully believed that abortion is a absolute right. and that's, you can't tell him otherwise. i know also a lot of women working republican politics for one issue, voters who believe that abortion is murder. both of those sides of the

conversation have chosen those and their side, bernie moreno, i think if you listen to the extended clip, was trying to say that the community that he is trying to speak to are those who are persuadable, those who are looking at a broad swath of issues and sherrod brown running in a red state, what has become a red state or more red is on the wrong side of issues that mattered a lot of ohioans. >> and this is something that it's not even just for how people feel about abortion. this issue has kind of cross party lines where we've seen every time a constitutional amendment about abortion has been on a ballot, even in more red-leaning states, astead, it has been successful in pointing case ohio, just a few months ago, not that long ago. well, last year where amendment passed there, i wonder in the context of that how ohio voters are listening to this, because this is a really important race when it comes to determining which party controls the senate. >> absolutely. i mean, republicans are not without evidence that this issue matters for a lot of people. i would say men and women alike. i mean, they have seen

consistently over the last a couple of years, they have lost whenever whenever this has been put to people, they've consistently back abortion rights in places like ohio. think about the brassica, think about the arizona abortion referendum that will be there in november. and even more importantly, it's provided simple crashing offensive issue. truly take the focus away from things they don't want to be talking about, things about immigration are even more 50-50, things like the economy. but republicans have attacked problem on this issue, which i think is what nikki haley is also trying to get out even if they wanted to make the argument that kind of tw is making here, they haven't put themselves in spaces really to talk to women about this issue in a way that comes at it from a really full humanity angle. and frankly that's because the most problems and let members of their party be a donald trump be j.d. vance, have put themselves in this kind of masculinity bubble. i don't think it's i don't think i don't understand what they're trying to do here in terms of lack of strategy to your point, what they are trying to do is really a signal to people who like berating women who are signaling to a kind of mail

caucus that they have been trying to really coalesce. now, republicans are trying to make up their gender gap. on the other side. but what we know is that women felt more consistently the men, and that the historic gender gap that they see right now cuts across racial lines. so suburban woman of the past has just been characterized as just wide are, or mother or suburban van mom week that looks differently now. and in states like georgia and states like wisconsin, even when you get out to the west, that's the parts where republicans have significantly been struggling. >> okay, so if you're sherrod brown and given everything you just laid out there and you're six weeks away from your election and bernie moreno, your opponent makes this comment. i mean, what do the next six weeks look like for him because bernie moreno doesn't want to be talking about abortion imagine in the next six weeks, i mean, here's the thing is that you know, people say a lot of things that you just have to let ride. i think kamala harris says, great job at this. bernie moreno has already said what he had to say. sherrod brown is just keep it on loop, keep it on loop. let him speak for himself. and i think the voters will continue to hear that ohio has already proven that they don't

want any part parts of an abortion ban. they don't want to have conversations that are suggesting that women are less than and i think that having that be part of the mainstream narrative is not something that democrats need to do. i think that republicans are doing it enough on their own will on all of this tw. i do want to get your take because trump is praising joe manchin tonight, which is not something he has always it's done after manchin was critical for what we heard harris say there that she does support eliminating the senate filibuster that roadblock essentially, to codify roe versus wade back into law, should she win, should democrats take control of the senate? i mean, it's notable given trump himself pressure republican leaders when he was president to gut the filibuster. they rebuffed his calls and said no because mitch mcconnell doesn't think it's a good idea yeah. >> well two pieces of information. first of all, kamala harris has also advocated for getting rid of the filibuster to pass the green new deal. >> so that to me doesn't hold

a ton of water. the other part of that equation is that donald trump also opposes an abortion ban. he supports mandated ivf coverage. he stripped, pressured the republican party to strip out of the platform abortion language we can't understate how big that is i think nobody i think in this country really believes that donald trump is an ant, is an anti-abortion zealot. they think he's pro conservative justices, but no one thinks he's an anti-abortion zealot the fact of the matter is is that these, these questions are going to come down to broader swaths of issues in the states where they have these referendums in laws closer to the people. ruth bader ginsburg's original argument pre roe v. wade, let the people decide, don't make it a lightning strike issue. all 50 states will have referendums it's, or laws passed that are responsive to the people, and that will be deciding and the

people are saying, i want, i want to have abortion right? we're talking about kentucky. we're talking about kansas. >> we're not just talking about liberal california here in which did about that is it's not nine unelected people in robes in washington. it is the people i totally think that donald trump has created separation from his party but he, on this issue. but the truth of the matter is and wants to something that kamala harris says over and over. the reason this has been thrown into flux is the conservative justices, donald trump put on the court, i can say when i talk to folks, even folks who are sympathetic to donald trump, they still associate him with the loss of that row view. what the loss of roe v. wade. and so i think he's playing defense on the issue better than so another republicans, or because he recognized from the bidding just frankly how unpopular the place where the evangelical wing of the party really is on this, the kind of give no holds barred full a full abortion ban front. but the reality is if whether it be project 2025 or whatever or whatever democrats are going to try to say the ecosystem of donald trump remains a conservative one that has anti-a boris. it, and that's what democrats are going to try to point to. yeah. and he didn't answer it. the debate, if you would veto a national

abortion ban, great to have you all here. >> thank you for that up next, we're getting new details tonight and you're gonna want to hear this on the detention center. were sean diddy combs is being held, one of his sons liberty roommates, who is being held there with him. this is all coming as a new woman tonight is accusing the music mogul, mogul of drugging and assaulting her and 2001 and filming it locked up but that's a temporary feeling offering saturday syscall seen in the taking a break from breaking news to air. >> have i got news for you? >> breaking news. i'm getting a sandwich. >> we need to talk about what constitutes breaking news. provide got news for you saturday at nine on cnn and streaming next day on max which i'll get to decide when i get my pilot's me, get up to $500 of marape when i needed. >> there's no interests, no credit checks, no mandatory fees and that's why i can join me. it's and.com and get paid

was filed just days after federal officials trusted him for racketeering and sex trafficking. >> the lea graves is accusing combs and his bodyguard of drugging and violently raping her in 2001, even filming the attack, graves says she was 25-years-old at the time and that she passed out after combs had offered her a glass of wine when she awoke, she was naked and had her hands bound. and she alleges that combs and his bodyguard, joseph sherman, brutally attacked her. now, when she was speaking alongside her attorney today, grave said that she's still reeling from that episode in 2001, the pain of that assault especially after she learned last year that the video theo of it was shown to other people the combination of physical and emotional pain has created a cycle of suffering from which it is so far to break free. >> it's a pain that reaches into your very core of who you

are and leaving emotional scars that may never fully heal joining me tonight, cnn legal analyst, joey jackson and joy, i should know. >> we've reached out to combs's camp to the bodyguards camp. his bodyguard denied this. her account to the new york times. but when you look at her allegations and the criminal case that's ongoing against him, which talked about a pattern that they said went on for decades and also talked about other people around him who assisted him and what they're accusing him of what do you make of this lawsuit yeah. it's pretty difficult to read. kaitlan was what i make of it. the allegations and the specifics that are in this complaint too hard to talk about anywhere much less television with respect to the nature of his conduct and what is alleged that he actually did now when a civil lawsuit, what happens is of course their allegations that need it'd be proven the issue he has is this is the 11th kaitlan 11th lawsuit. and people are alleging things that are very similar in nature. couple of

things have come up about this. the first is why it's federal. i'll tell you there's no federal claims there based on new york city claims not to get inside baseball, but what new york city did very progressively, as they said, look, you if you were sexually assaulted or abused, that we're going to extend the statute of limitations for a two-year period and started in 23 ends in 25 in march. and so that's why she's included even though these are in 2001. the other issue obviously, that comes up with this in terms of proof and the merits is, well, how is it sustained? well, she's alleging that there's this videotape that is out there that resurface in november of 2023, and that videotape would memorialize or otherwise show exactly what occurred. >> so if true, there's a world of the problems here. >> and then you have to think about how the fed's may look to use this in his federal prosecution as well. >> yeah, that's a that's the really the big question for me tonight is how this could factor in because her attorney,

gloria, already today declined to say whether or not she'd spoken to investigators and this is all coming last week. we talked a lot about what did he be released on bail. he ultimately was not. he is still in brooklyn glen at the detention facility there. and today we learned that he's basically this dorm-style room. and the person he's sharing a living space with is sam bankman-fried. and i was just of course, he's the former ftx ceo accused of fraud. and just looking at that as you're one of these conditions, like an a dorm-style unit. >> so just to be clear, kaitlan dorm-style or otherwise, right. jail and detention as jailed attention and when you have a situation where they are persons of means and you mentioned one right? who was accused of florida must convict did having millions and millions of dollars. and of course, diddy having millions. it's not your normal home life. and so as a result of that, there are conditions that you have to follow. this certain meals that you get that

there is one headline tonight that will make you ask, what are the chances of that? i certainly did because today, the case that is involving the attempted second assassination of former president donald trump was assigned to judge aileen cannon yes, the judge cannon that we are all so familiar with now, the federal judge, who presided over and ultimately threw out the criminal classified documents case. that the justice department brought against donald trump. today, it was randomly assigned. she was to this high-profile case as well. this is coming as what we saw today happening in court where a better prosecutors formally charged ryan ruth with trying to assassinate trump when he was at his florida golf course earlier this month. that is an addition to those initial gun charges they were holding him on. ruth is expected to go before judge cannon for the first time on monday we'll keep you updated on that also

tonight, a headline that seems a little bit more believable republican congressman from new york finds himself in the hot seat in terms of a brewing scandal. once again, and also in terms of hanging onto his place in congress. and he's not outright denying the allegations that were first reported by the new york times that he gave part-time jobs in his district office to both his alleged lover as the new york times puts it and to his fiance's daughter, that as a possible violation of health ethics rules. and tonight, congressman anthony d'esposito is one of the most vulnerable, vulnerable republicans in this entire election. he's calling the new york times reporting a hit piece and says that he is upheld the highest ethical standards of personal conduct. but when the race for the house so close a scandal on long island is not what republicans want or need at this time. you might recall d'esposito was actually one of the most vocal critics of george santos for him unethical conduct santos

tried to exploit every aspect of his candidacy for personal financial gain, who has used his position of public trust? to personally benefit himself from day one joining me now cnn's harry enten and the co-author of politico's new york playbook, emily, no, great to have you both here, emily, you actually do reporting because you're hearing from the d'esposito campaign on these allegations that he put someone who was having an affair with while he was in aged on his payroll, what are they telling you the fact that they're saying in they're denying for the first time that he was in a relationship with this woman while she was on his payroll, and i don't find that to be an outright denial of the fact that he had an affair, which was a bit of an open secret nor a denial that he employed people. we do have reporting also from newsday. that's sort of examine payroll records. just saw the web of patronage that is a foot in gop-dominated nassau county and

these individuals that are mentioned, the new york times reporting that we care about now are just caught hug's in this patronage mill and d'esposito himself has benefited from that members of his family were employed and local government, when he himself was serving serving as a city council member for hempstead so he believes he can weather this. he believes everything he's done as aboveboard and that's what he's telling reporters on capitol hill? and telling us as well. yeah. well, it's just a fresh off of what happened with george santos. >> i think new york republicans are still reeling from that. harry and neither looking at this d'esposito is one of the most endangered republicans come november. and this is, these are several seats that house republicans are desperately trying to hang onto. mike lawler, marc molinaro are other ones because they want to retain the house majority. yeah. >> exactly. right. i'll say d'esposito feels a little bit like the lady doth protest too much, at least when it came to george santos. but look, the bottom line is, republicans need a net gain of four seats in order to pick up the

chamber. and there are four republican held seats in the house in the state of new york for the house of representatives a two up in the hudson valley, one on long island, and one up in the syracuse area williams, and which are endangered at this point, we're talking about seats that are rated either as toss up or lean democratic seats that joe biden was able to win four years ago. the bottom line is, last time around in 2022, a good chunk of the republican gains in order to flip the house came from new york. if democrats are going to flip the house this time around, i wouldn't be surprised if a good chunk, if not the downright outright majority come from the state of new york. i because of what happened in new york the last time. i mean, they took down the democratic party chair in this rate, these races, mike lawler beat him. and so when you look at that, i mean, there would be no house speaker mike johnson then had the new york republicans, not one in the last election that's how close are on a knife's edge. this really is absolutely and that's why i think both parties, republicans and democrats are looking so closely at new york on long island and the hudson valley in

the search area, like he's saying, in the d'esposito race against laura gillen, the former him said time i'm supervisor is one of the three closest in this state. we're brandon williams versus don mannion in the syracuse area. we have as you noted, marc molinaro versus josh riley in the hudson valley and lawler and mondaire jones as well. the first three more competitive in my opinion. and according to forecasters but this is how crucial these seats are. a scandal like this could move votes, could, if anything invigorated democrats to come out in support gillen, but it depends a lot on what the gillen campaign does with this, with a deep trouble seed does with this because so far she has been keeping our head down and campaign eu not making a huge fuss about this and all of this but her so much harry, listen to what house speaker mike johnson said today when he was asked about certifying the election vote in 2020 of course, if we have a free, fair and safe election, we're going to follow the constitution absolutely. >> yes, absolutely. >> yes.

>> sorry, that was taught. this is what he was asked what he would do in 2025. and i was looking at the numbers today, the dates, january 3 is when the new congress is seated. january 6 is when the election certification is set to happen. a bit real questions about what republicans would do that day of trump loses and it's close. i mean, this has real implications, not just for the house and some new york republicans, it has implications for the whole country. >> it absolutely does. it has implications about whether or not we're going to go through another gosh darn january 6, i think most americans want to leave it in the past, but when you hear statements like that you know, that's a very lukewarm statement in my humble opinion. so we'll see the ramifications of potentially a democratic house come january 6, then obviously going potentially into the presidency, right? we were just talking just before this segment, the house is so close at this time, it wouldn't surprise me if donald trump wins the presidency and then you get a democratic house and a republican held senate where there there currently favorite to win back the senate. it could be the only block that democrats could hold over donald trump if he does, in fact when the presidency, yeah,

of course, last time democrats held the house, they impeach, yeah, that didn't happen. >> i do recall that harry enten emily. >> nash. thank you both for being here tonight also tonight, it is a fast-food war that is happening bigger than big mac versus the whopper. it's a question out. the mcdonald's vote and why trump is in such denial that harris wants works. there will talk about that next america were watching then the next day, our world change murphy has baby, quayle has cow bones coming out episodes, it says to the world, gets okay to be gay george bush it does not care about black people never thought something that i wrote with me to a culture war. >> you didn't shoot back like this and watch shout tv on the edge, moments that shaped our culture. sunday at nine on cnn look at the city little saleable. these men of means were a silver spoon heating up

nine years since he glided down that golden escalator, donald trump has had beef with just about everyone, but not quite like this mcdonald's? she never worked at mcdonald's, but it was a big part of her resume. they went in, they went to the different places that she worked good. that you weren't good, that you work here she is. >> we don't know who the hell she is. leave us alone, will make an hamburgers as you can hear from that, the former president has seemed almost fixated on one part of vice president harris's resume in college, i worked at mcdonald's to earn spending money harris has said previously she was on fries duty and had to man the ice cream machine when she was in college in 1983. >> it howard, that was during her summer break. that's according to a campaign official who we asked about this but none of that information has stopped trump

from repeatedly accusing the vice president of lying about this. it's almost become an obsession on the campaign trail. today, we were listening to donald trump's speak in georgia. he went as far as to say, he's going to take up a job at the golden arches himself to see what it's like i'm going over the next two weeks. i'm going to send over the french fries because i want to see what a job really wasn't like. she lied about mcdonald's it's not clear, but maybe it strikes such a chord. trump has always been a big mcdonald's customer himself. of course, no one can forget the picture in 2016 after he clinched the republican nomination and had a big mac and fries on his plane to celebrate cnn's chief media analyst, brian stelter joins me now. and brian obviously when you listen to as many trump rallies as i have, and his comments you know, his roadmap and where he's going and where a question is, or what he's

about to say. the mcdonald's thing has become a recurring theme. obsession of his since harris became the nominee that he's just accusing her of not telling the truth, maybe because it does seem like a vulnerability insofar as this is relatable for harris, i remember the first time harris, but this in a campaign ad about a month ago, and i immediately message that harris spokeswoman said, i did not know this fact about her. it turns out she had shared it before she had mentioned it before while running in 2020. and then as vice president. but i think for many americans, myself included it was a new piece of information and a very relatable one. did you have a first job in high school or college? my first job was swirling ice cream cones across the street from mcdonald's and then mcdonald's was the only place was open after work. everyone has that kind of relatable first job experience, million and first jobs it felt like i worked at a doctor's office and high school i to file medical charts like before they were in computers. every time a patient would come in, i'd have to take the stack of charts and then go back and filed them alphabetically. are a lot of patients, but that was

my first job. i did not want while he was in high school, everybody has that, but do you have any record you did it here here's the problem for his may either just because that really relevant to my right here, he shared this and then a pro-trump web sites are to talk about what, hey, is there evidence? >> is there proof that she worked at mcdonald's? there's no records. there's no receipts. now, i don't have any selfies or receipts from my time working at jimmy cohen. you might not have any record of working in the doctor's office, but this has been seized upon by trump allies to say maybe she's making it up. and i find that be will during what did it come from that she was making it up. >> was this something that was started? i mean, is it able to even is just online that people said it's not true. >> i think of a bunch of munich i pro-trump commentators started this idea, not saying definitively that she made it up, just raising the question. i think we see this oftentimes when it comes to trump because of his record of fact-free claims, what his allies tried to say is everybody else is making up stuff to everybody is a liar. so it's not a big deal when he fibs, i think that might be what's going on here with mcdonald's, but now as you said, it's a little bit of an obsession for him to say

he's going to go and work there. and i hope he does it. i think it's a brilliant idea for donald trump to go and work the french fry machine. i will volunteer to come and help him on the hamburger lines. >> you don't always thinking about. i mean, that would be quite i should note you've brought props with us here tonight. >> course i did as soon as i ever talk about mcdonald's, i thought i had to go and get a happy man, right? >> this is actually really tempting for via someone who has the diet of this 16-year-old boy, like, i love fast food. >> there's nothing more american that mcdonald's, you know what i was thinking about the listening to this today is when you're someone like a reporter and your job is to listen to trump rallies into his speeches that are a debate that 70 million people are watching. >> there are a lot of comments like this one where it's something that he does bring up repeatedly. i told them on truth social, he brings it up repeatedly. there but regular voters, people who are busy with their own jobs, may not be paying attention to this. >> i agree with you. i was about to go take a step i totally agree with you that there are moments at these rallies that should be more taken more seriously, sometimes

because they're controversial. other times, just because they're strange and interesting and maybe surprising. they might go viral on tiktok, but they are also newsworthy when it comes to this, i just think to myself, if kamala harris was going to make up a job which she really make up working at mcdonald's. it just doesn't to me doesn't pass the smell test. but as always, trump is putting her on the defensive by saying maybe she didn't work there at all and i again, i hope he goes and actually works there and hangs out for a little bit. i think he would learn a lot. >> she seems to follow the tack of just not responding to the attack. >> do you want to know my mcdonald's hacked by the way? >> i do. i go to i go and every time my kids i got a happy meal for the adults because i find it's the perfect amount of food so just for everybody watching, that's my mcdonald's tip. >> i'm more of a big mac girl, brian stelter sarah, thank you for that. thanks for joining us. the news continues right here on cnn trump vows to make women great again, insisting if he wins, women will no longer feel abandoned lonely are scared his words, this is nikki haley calls out our own party for
